This essential roots reggae mini-album showcases the heavy dub-influenced sound of Peter Culture, a seasoned artist whose career spans back to the early 1980s with legendary labels like Ariwa. Released in 2008 on the Gadd 59 Music label (PGLP 002-10), this 10-inch vinyl serves as a potent time capsule of contemporary UK roots production.
The striking cover art features a traditional African mask set against a vibrant split yellow and red background, reflecting the deep cultural and spiritual themes found within the music.
The tracklist is a masterclass in modern roots and dubwise construction, designed to appeal to both sound system selectors and home listeners. Side A opens with the rallying call of Come We Proceed, followed immediately by its heavy Proceed Dub counterpart. The socially conscious Willie Lynch and the accompanying Lynch Dub round out the first side, providing a powerful narrative on historical and cultural identity.
